Chapter 931 Into Ashes
Ma Shunde glanced at the emperor in surprise, and then lowered his eyelids: "Even the Jade Chan Temple that was just dealt with, there are already sixteen."

Every time Ma Shunde thinks of this number, he can't help but feel his scalp tingle, sixteen, this is not sixteen workshops, let alone sixteen restaurants, this is sixteen shrines!

Even the weakest shrine, which has been able to occupy the capital for many years, should not be underestimated.

What's more, dealing with the shrine on behalf of the king is not at all a persimmon to find softness, but can really list the crimes and deal with them according to the major crimes and minor crimes-which one of these is better?

Maybe a few shrines that have many believers but are more peaceful will not be as troublesome as these sixteen shrines.

Dai Wang is really courageous!

Even I have to praise myself, amazing!
Ma Shunde admired him in his heart, Dai Wang was desperate, did he really rely on his passion, or did he rely on something else?

No matter how I think about it, I feel that apart from the emperor, it is impossible to have a bigger background.

But the emperor's thoughts on Dai Wang are also very complicated. If Dai Wang has the guts to do it, he may not be able to get good results in the future.

Knowing that it is impossible to do it, maybe Dai Wang is still a young man?

This thought flashed through Ma Shunde's mind quickly, but he felt that it was wrong, so he just lowered his head and waited for the emperor's order.

The emperor was silent for a long time when he heard this, his eyes were shining under the lamp and candle, and suddenly dimmed again, and said: "The acting king is willing to do things with heart and courage, and I am really relieved. How can I not grant the imperial seal I want?" ?”

As he said that, he went out, Ma Shunde hurriedly stepped forward to help him, his hands were cold, with the unique body odor of an old man.

"I am old."

Feeling that the body is getting worse day by day, thinking that the elixir has not been refined for a long time, the emperor's eyes flashed a gloomy look, could it be that before I died, I couldn't see the elixir being refined?
The emperor has been especially impatient in the past few days. Thinking of this, the muscles on his face twitched slightly. When he arrived at the side hall, he motioned for Ma Shunde to let go.

Prepare breakfast for the emperor, which is naturally rich, and dare not be sloppy in the slightest. In the eyes of the emperor, he has no appetite.

After barely drinking a small cup of soup, he put down his chopsticks and signaled to withdraw.

"Go to the study," said the emperor.

Ma Shunde hurriedly responded and accompanied the emperor to the imperial study.

Ma Shunde has been here for countless times, now he has changed his identity and examined carefully, there are palace maids standing in front of every door in the corridors and aisles.

The imperial study room, bright yellow and heavy curtains, the bookshelves are well-arranged, the eunuchs are standing bowed and waiting, the books on the imperial case have been folded up, and the pen and ink are served, but it is different from ordinary people, dipped in cinnabar.

"This is a vermilion pen." Ma Shunde's eyes were fiery. This is the pen used by the emperor when reviewing memorials and imperial documents. It represents the authority of the emperor. If it is used without the emperor's permission, it is a false edict and he must be executed according to the law. .

It can be said that with one move of the ink pen, tens of thousands of lives, honors and disgraces are at the stroke of a stroke.

This batch of papers was handed over from the cabinet. Today is not the day for the morning court, but the emperor still has to work.

Because his eyes are blurred, he can't see clearly after a long time. A eunuch like Ma Shunde is also responsible for reading the scriptures. Don't look at it as if he has no power. Maybe he can control many things at this stage.

In the past, it was Eunuch Zhao who ordered to deal with these matters, but now it is finally my turn!
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the rustling of her clothes, and when she was busy taking a look, she saw that the emperor did not take his seat immediately, standing in front of the screen and meditating, and hurriedly lowered his head, feeling a little anxious in his heart.

After a long time, the emperor walked slowly, saying: "There is a decree."

Immediately there was a eunuch with a skillful pen in hand, waiting for the emperor's decree.

The emperor murmured: "The Dai Wang is young, I thought I would have to learn for a few years, but now I have the courage to do things, regardless of reputation, I am very pleasantly surprised, this is commendable."

"Qingyuan Temple originally had suspicions, some of which were guilty, and some of which were based on speculation, but Bianxuan is now doing his best to do things. Not only can the previous crimes be eliminated, but there will also be rewards, such as the title of Chan Master."

"The contribution of the Yin Guan faction is not small, but it has already been canonized, and an extra plaque can be given."

The eunuch wrote extremely fast, the emperor's words fell silent, the ink dripping draft had been written, he carefully blew it, and held it to the emperor with both hands, the emperor looked at it carefully, revised a few words, nodded and sat down, and began to read the memorial without raising his head and said : "Make a copy and put the jade seal on it. Later, you will pass the decree and instruct the Shuntian Mansion to investigate the assassination of the Dai Wang."

"Yes!" Ma Shunde was a little disappointed that it was not his turn to actually read the paperwork, but it was just a matter of time. He agreed and withdrew. He had to wait until he got the imperial edict.

"Conferred the title of Zen master and given a plaque?" After leaving the main hall, the godson stepped forward to serve Ma Shunde attentively, and served Ma Shunde to eat something. At the same time, he also heard Ma Shunde mention this matter, the little eunuch was immediately surprised.

"It seems that Dai Wang still has a place in the emperor's heart, and if he mentions it, he will succeed!"

"You know what a fart, kid!" Ma Shunde glared a little resentfully.

"I beg godfather to teach you!" The little eunuch hurriedly climbed up the pole, asking for advice.

Ma Shunde saw that there were only two of them at the moment, and there was no one else, but he was afraid of being overheard, so he just said: "You just need to remember, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, and as slaves, we only need to serve the emperor well, think more Say, it may make you lose your head, understand?"

The little eunuch was startled, and quickly understood.

"Okay, it's time for our family to leave the palace." Just after drinking a cup of tea, the imperial decree arrived, and Ma Shunde got up after estimating the time.

"I don't know if the old dog surnamed Zhao is lying on the couch waiting to die. Forget it, I will visit him when I have a chance later."

Almost at the same time, in a courtyard of the imperial city, the court ladies walked silently. In a bedroom in the main courtyard, Eunuch Zhao, whom Ma Shunde had just talked about, was leaning on the cushion and looking at the two copies in his hand.

Although he looked sickly, he was not as haggard as Ma Shunde imagined. After carefully looking through the booklet, he didn't speak for a while, but only sighed secretly in his heart.

"Sixteen shrines, Daiwang, you have offended these people, how will you end up?" Eunuch Zhao secretly sighed: "The imperial court will definitely praise, but it will definitely cause a lot of trouble."

With so many shrines being dealt with, there are quite a few people offended. Don’t look at the prestige of the Daiwang, as if any shrine has no resistance. This is because the emperor still needs the Daiwang. up.

Invisibly, Dai Wang's rapid rise was interrupted by himself.

"Let's not talk about it, if you ask for credit on behalf of the king, the Daofan family will benefit, and I don't know how to repay it in the future."

"Godfather, should we do something?" While thinking, the little eunuch couldn't hold back, and finally asked.

Eunuch Zhao stared at him and said, "The person to be investigated in our family is already guilty of a crime. The emperor will decide everything!"

What the little eunuch wanted to say, was frightened back by the coldness hidden in his eyes, and hurriedly lowered his head: "What godfather said is true!"

"Bring the fire booklet." Eunuch Zhao raised his head and said.

Immediately, the little eunuch handed over the fire folders, and Eunuch Zhao burned the two copies little by little, seeing that more than half of them had been burned, before throwing them into the copper basin.

With a "puff", flames burst out, and the remaining pieces of paper turned into ashes
